Hello, World.
Hey I'm John - Programmer, Geek and Maker. I run the This Smart House blog in my free time, hack on Arduinos/ESP8266s, and have two aquaponics gardens in my home.
Professionally I'm a PHP Core Developer and have been writing PHP and C code for an uncomfortably long time. I currently balance my time between Freelancing and my StartUp TestNotice.
My Projects (completed)
- My aquaponics setup in my basement (I also have one outside)
- Hacking various off-the-shelf devices to do my bidding
- 3D Printing with my two ANet A8 highly modified 3D printers
- A photo booth built with a Raspberry Pi, a photo printer, some custom Python and a nice laser-cut case
- Building various smart IoT devices such as
- BBQ Temp sensor
- Water temp sensors
- Smart Relays (hard wired and pluggable)
- Smart Fish Tanks
- Smart Fish food dispensers
- Smart Aquarium dosing systems
- Running my entire house using HomeAssistant MQTT and Alexa
My Projects (ongoing and certainly incomplete)
- Converting my two 120 gallon tanks (one freshwater, one saltwater) to natural gas heating via titanium heat exchangers to save dollars vs. electric heat
- A tabletop automatic water changing system for saltwater fish tanks
- An artsy giant waterfall / pet water dish with automatic topoff so the pets don't run out of water
My Software Projects
- PHP ext/tidy (http://www.php.net/)
- CoogleIOT (a ESP8266 firmware base library for quickly building decent IoT devices)
- xymodem (an implementation of the X/YModem protocol I was contracted to write for a client that works with the ESP8266)
- coogle-switch (A smart switch library for the ESP8266 based on CoogleIOT)
- coogle-pond (control system for my outdoor pond)
- coogle-feeder (stepper driven fish feeder via MQTT)
- coogle-doser (peristaltic pump aquarium nutrient doser via MQTT)
Tech I toy with
- Everything Web Development (except graphics, I'm not a web designer)
- MCUs (Arudino, ESP8266 primarily)
- Raspberry Pi
- PHP / C / C++ / JavaScript / HTML / CSS / SQL
